There are automated trading sites that you can use that even sell your item for you with a bot for a fixed price.

I really don't understand why ppl get so butthurt with the occasional offer that is not exactly what they want. Just hide his offer, you don't even need to reply. It's a simple click.

btw, bloating your notes with blank lines in between every line only makes it more likely ppl ignore your notes.

It's not that am anti-negotiation, but if someone says "Price is not negotiable" then maybe you shouldn't try to negotiate the price? If it is a fixed price then I'm not looking for offers. It's not lowballs that I do not like, it is people who have blatant disregard about what the trade states. They see the item they want and ignore what the seller is saying completely. Also, on your comment about my trade descriptions, it's much easier to read what I have than a paragraph of notes where you have to browse the whole paragraph to see what the seller wants. I have my price separated by lines in the middle so it stands out. I think if it was just a paragraph people would be less inclined to read it.

Not sure I understand what you mean.

You have a ban for spamming nonsense...from a year ago. Why do you go on the tf2outpost steam group if you haven't been allowed to use the site for a year?

The point is it's my trade and I have an absolute set down price and I'm not accepting anything else, and I'm clearly stating that. It's not like im asking for offers and its just a lowball, it's blatant disregard of what the trade description states, which they obviously did not read.

And another one happened on Example 2. I understand not being a native English speaker, but wouldn't you ask "Are you taking offers?" or try using google translator (or for that matter just ask what the trade states)? Or maybe I should get off the internet.

Just a bit peeved that people can't take two seconds to read. I try to make it clear on what I am selling and buying, so it is easy for people to know what I want. Here are some examples of trades where, as you can see in the comments, people just outright ignore my descriptions.

I wouldn't go with BP expanders unless you want to hold onto them for a while. So many on the market right now they will probably be hard to sell. I'd buy 4 gold paints (sell for 2.66 instead of 3 ref like all the paint traders) or 2 gift wraps.
